    Thanks for all your help well accept from apples

    I think the OP means except from apples. The post makes no sense as it stands.
    I used to think that good grammar is important, but now I know that good wine is importanter.

    Ummm, you saved no-one anything, turning up late and saying you were on time.....doesn't make you on time. The User had already decided against it. Your comment was therefore redundant. The ongoing venereal disease of a paragraph only proves to your too much time, and borderline stalking.
    This thread was made for a purpose, that purpose was neither arrogance because that bully in the office just keeps taking your dinner money nor was it 'talk about another thread' to establish some modicum of an epic failure in perspicacity.

    It's ringing again.

    Why are you repeatedly dragging up old threads to have an infantile whinge anyway? Must be school holidays.

    Hi all,

    So I am having to move house due to disrepair and health problems due to my property. I have tried to get everything fixed. The landlord just will not do anything. I have even tried withholding my rent. I will now be getting legal action over this and have this in progress.

    The main thing is that I am moving out 20-25th feb as this is when I get paid but I would like to move out sooner. I have a bad credit rating missed payments on loans and banks and returned dd's which for the past 3 months i've been paying regurly but this does not represent how i've been for the last 6 years


    I have been offered a £1250 from smile finance saying 5 lenders have accepeted me. In the past i've been asked to pay a loan processing fee of £79 - £290+ but this time they are asking for just £26. do I pay this and will I definetly get the loan or is it a scam and should avoid? any help be great.


    Do you take a fee?
    A. We do ask for a small fee to cover our processing costs so we won't limit our search. However we only charge the legal minimum amount of £26.34 compared to other loan sites charging £50, £60 or even £70+. We believe in treating customers fairly while providing the best service possible.

    So in a nutshell they take the £26.34 and fob you off the same way as if you paid £70 or £10!

    Your post is the biggest load of crepe I have read on here for a while.

    Which is an impressive claim to fame considering some of the stuff that appears on here.

    Hehe, actually it was at the head of the pile, it's popping up not being dragged :)
    That ringing will stop when you stop forcing the cotton buds through resistance, it's in you, you can do it...
    It's not a holiday, that level of sarcasm deserves it's own thread, or rope, and a lamppost :D
